Fiber-optic collimators are used to launch the light from an optical fiber into a free space collimated beam with specified beam diameter or spot size. In essence, a simple collimation lens is all that is needed for this. Definition: devices for collimating the light coming from a fiber, or for launching collimated light into the fiber Alternative term: fiber-optic collimators Category: fiber optics and waveguides Concept tree: Related: beam collimators fibers fiber connectors collimated beams insertion loss fiber. Thorlabs offers a variety of fiber collimation and coupling solutions. In essence, a simple collimation lens is all that is needed for this purpose. 1 This animation provides an introduction to the mechanism of the FiberPort and shows how the FiberPort can be used as a collimator.
